Eli Roth has recently announced that The Green Inferno (2013) is pushing forward towards a August - September 2015 movie release date. Further more, we are talking a theatrical release date thanks to Open Road Films. That is right, possibly a full theatrical movie release date or at the very least, a limited theatrical release. Definite details may be released at The Sundance Film Festival 2015 so look forward to more details real soon. Starring in The Green Inferno are Lorenza Izzo, Ariel Levy and Aaron Burns.

Relativity Studios is now looking for a replacement for Luke Evans because he is no longer apart of The Crow Reboot, bummer. Corin Hardy is still attached as the director but Luke Evans is a busy guy in high demand, we could not expect him to stick around in this “limbo” surrounding The Crow Reboot/The Crow Remake. I am sad to see him go and I know that many would have seen the reboot/remake just because he was attached. We will keep you posted when his “replacement” is found.

William Brent Bell is making a new horror movie titled The Boy with Lauren Cohan (AMC’s The Walking Dead, CW’s Supernatural) to star in the lead role, her first feature film lead role. The Boy is a horror thriller that “centers on a nanny (Cohan) who is tasked with overseeing a lifelike doll by a bizarre couple who treat it as a real child. The couple use the doll as way to cope with the death of their young son, but the nanny becomes increasingly convinced that it is alive.” Involved in the project are Lakeshore Entertainment and Vertigo Entertainment with filming scheduled to start this March 2015. The screenplay was created by Stacey Menear. All said, I am am very interested in this project and cannot wait to see more.

All-female horror anthology XX (2015) finally has a movie poster attached to the new film. The upcoming movie has terrific female horror directors like Karyn Kusama (Girlfight, Jenniffer’s Body), Mary Harron (American Psycho), Jennifer Lynch (Surveillance), Sofia Carrillo (La Casa Triste) and Jovanka Vuckovic (The Captured Bird). The new movie will include four short stories/films. XYZ Films will produce the film. That is about all the news available right now so expect more as more news is released.

CONtv will release it’s new Fight of the Living Dead TV series. They describe it as Survivor meets The Walking Dead. So basically competitors face off against hordes of walking zombies. Sounds interesting and I cannot wait to see the first episode.

NBC and Sky TV has just greenlit a new futuristic dramedy “Apocalypse”. Set to star in Apocalypse are Rob Lowe, Megan Mullally, Jenna Fischer and Mathew Baynton. NBC describes the series as out-of-the-box and original. I hate to call it so early but I am not sold on this new TV series… next.

Rose McGowan has signed on to make her directorial debut in The Pines. The Pines will be a psychological thriller. Shooting will start in Fall 2015 in upstate New York. Set to produce The Pines are Sundial Pictures and Tangerine Entertainment. Alex Mar has written the script which is described as “a troubled young woman’s dreams of stability are threatened by a family of healers who could help save her mind, or lose it completely.” News broke on opening night of the Sundance Film Festival 2015. Rose McGowan did create a short movie titled “Dawn” that she submitted to the Sundance Film Festival 2014.

Guillermo Amoedo‘s The Stranger (2015) is produced by Eli Roth and Nicolas Lopez. IFC Midnight has just acquired the distribution rights to the new film. There is no official release date yet but that should be released soon. Starring in The Stranger are Lorenza Izzo, Ariel Levy and Aaron Burns.

The Greasy Strangler is coming together from a huge collaboration including Elijah Wood‘s SpectreVision, Drafthouse Films, Rook Films and Timpson Films to produce The Greasy Strangler. This will be the directorial debut of British Jim Hosking. All I have to say is “if Elijah Wood is in, so am I.” The new horror film takes place in Los Angeles with Ronnie and son Brayden. Father and son soon fall victim to the allure of a sexy woman and they both begin competing for her attention. Mysteriously, this is also the start of a killing spree for a slimy serial killer strangling the innocent later to be known as “The Greasy Strangler.”

Scream Factory will release their Blu-ray for Rupert Wainwright‘s Stigmata (1999) this upcoming May 12, 2015. Although not a terrifically great horror movie, I did enjoy Stigmata. The extras (bonus features) have not been released yet but Scream Factory usually tries to add as much as they can. Starring in Stigmata are Patricia Arquette, Gabriel Byrne and Jonathan Pryce. Enjoy the Stigmata Blu-ray cover art below.

Fox has recently ordered a pilot for a new supernatural drama based on loosely Mary Shelley‘s Frankenstein. Fox is still trying to catch-up on what works as multiple other TV networks have several dark TV shows already in their primes. The new Frankenstein series will be written and produced by Rand Ravich and executive produced by Howard Gordon (The X-Files, Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Angel). The story will center on Ray Pritchard who is a morally corrupt retired cop who is brought back from the dead into a much younger and stronger body. Will Pritchard fall back into old temptations or choose better moral path? Frankenstein is going to be a Sci-Fi drama and from the sound of this early news, very boring and dull.

The folks over at Horror Decor have all kinds of horror items for horror fans. Horror Decor has just added Horror Buddies (horror icon pillows) featuring Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhees, zombie baby from Dead Alive, Farmer Vincent from Motel Hell and clown. All of these pillows look great and capture the spirit nicely. The pillows come in two sizes; big size is 21” tall while the smaller versions are 13” tall. The pillows are handmade and require 3-4 weeks for shipping, enjoy!

Marc Fehse‘s new horror comedy Sky Sharks (2017) seems like a slightly different take on Syfy’s Sharknado movies. I read the synopsis and even though Sharknado was not my “thing”, I feel like I could really like Sky Sharks. Sad we have to wait till September 1, 2017 to watch the film but by that time the new film should be very polished. Cast in Sky Sharks include Cary Tagawa, Robert LaSardo, Nick Principe, Lar Park-Lincoln, Lynn Lowry and Micaela Schafer.

Bruce McDonald‘s Hellions (2015) now has a new movie poster revealed. You can watch Hellions at the Sundance Film Festival 2015 this Sunday. The poster looks nice with a lovely angel aiming a shotgun at something, nice touch. Cast in Hellions are Chloe Rose, Rossif Sutherland, Rachel Wilson, Peter DaCunha, Luke Bilyk and Robert Patrick.

Director Jon Watts’ and Eli Roth produced Clown (2014) is finally getting it’s Blu-ray / DVD release date this upcoming March 2, 2015. I am hoping to add this horror film to my scary clown movies list, if it is scary enough. Eli Roth also stars as Frowny the Clown. Also starring in Clown are Peter Stormare, Laura Allen, Elizabeth Whitmere and Chuck Shamata. I really have high hopes for this scary movie and all promo material so far makes it look scary. What are your thoughts on Eli Roth’s Clown movie?

Simon West has been confirmed to direct The Blob Remake. Originally Rob Zombie was considering the directing chair on the remake but that did not happen. I was a fan of The Blob (1988) directed by Chuck Russell. Producers attached to the new remake right now include Richard Saperstein and Brian Witten. The Blob (1958) producer Jack H Harris will executive produce this new remake of The Blob along with Judith Parker Harris, Shara Kay and Laurence Freed. For those of you who do not know/forgot; the blob crash lands onto Earth and starts to multiply while/by eating/dissolving the local townsfolk. Are you excited to see the new Blob movie, I am!

Milla Jovovich just confirmed that Resident Evil: The Final Chapter (2016) will start shooting August 2015. Congrats to Milla Jovovich first of all on their new (second) child with husband Paul W.S. Anderson. Milla is such a trooper in her commitment to the Resident Evil movies but we are all hoping that the new Resident Evil film will be better than most of the previous films. This is supposedly the last and final Resident Evil movie. Shooting will take place in Cape Town, South Africa among other locations. Resident Evil: The Final Chapter is scheduled to release in movie theaters on September 2, 2016. Cast in Resident Evil: The Final Chapter are Milla Jovovich, Wentworth Miller and Sienna Guillory.
